CLETELAND'S COURTSaIP.
The Important Question Was Popped in
the East Room.
New York Herald

New York Herald.
There is one room in the White House.
on the upper floor, in the private part of
the mansion, to entering which Mrs.
Cleveland confesses an esDe-
ciCl aversion. 1t is the "staae
bedroom" which is next to ehe
library, on the south side of the building.
directly above the Red Parlor. Il is
one OF the most expensively fur
nished of any of the bed rooms.
and used to be called ''the Presidents
ROOM" though it believed none Of
the Presidents since the war have
slept in it. 1t has usually been kept as g.
bed room OF state, and it is asserted bv
those who should know that the Prince
Of Wales slept there when he
visited President Buchanan. 1t is
there that the ladies' asked tn
receive with Mrs. CleveItnn, at formal
receptions, go to remove their WRAPS. On
one such occasion durdg the past winter.
when the wife of member Of the Cabinet
was being shown into that room, Mrs. Cleve-
land, who was with her, drew back and
said: ooh, don't like this room: Iuever
come here when can help it, because it
has sad associations for me-. 1t was here
that the President told me gOOd-by when
was going to Europe. This was when
Mrs. and Miss Folsom We're at the White
House in the autumn of 1885, lust before
they sailed for Europe.
But the blue parlOr, where she was
married, and the east room, where.
as was learned from an admission
made by the President himself at
a dinner party few weeks ago,
the question was asked which
brought about the wedding, can have only
happy associations for the Presidents
loving wife. 1t was in converse
ton in which he had said: "I
often say to my wife, poor girl,
you never had any counting like Other
girls" that the President added: at
is true, l did say something to her one
night when we were walking together in
the east room, when she was here visiting
my sister"
This Is believed to have occurred in
the spring of 1885, when Miss
Folsom made her first visit to the
executive mansion. That the love
she promised then had begun much ear
ller than those who knew the present
lady of the White House while she was at
school firmly believe. Oae who was at
INC SAINT SNuoOI euu intimate with Miss
tolsom's roommate there says she re-
calls hearing the latter, after she
left school, when the news
OF the nomination of Grover
Cleveland to be President of the United
States was published, say refectively:
Grover Cleveland; why, that was the
name of the man Frank Folsom used to
talk so much about that used to tell
ner believed she was in love with him."
Others who knew Mrs. Cleveland as 8
child say she was always devoted to her
fatner's friend Mr.. Cleveland, who petted
and INDUCED her almost from her infancy,
and would always defend him when any
one attacked him and fly into 8 childish
rage when unkind things were said of
1lm IN her presence. He was and; is her
hero.

Prohibition Excitement in Michigan.

DETROIT, MICH, March 3I.-The in
tenstty of feeling over the proposed pro
hibition amendment has no parallel in the
history Of political campaigns in this
state. Conservative men of both sides
are fearing serious trouble on election
d Y in Detroit. The feeling against the
Prohibitionists in the eastern part of the
city is intense. The interest in state and
county politics shrinks out of sight com
pared with the absorbing importance of
the question, whether the people shall
have beer or not. The Eleventh ward
alderman said not one prohibition vote
would be cast in his precinct, because no
Prohibitionist would dare to vote there.

The drinking OF, so-called, "soda
water" is becoming more and more
general. There are nearly seven thou
sand fountains in Boston alone.
They are found not only in drug
stores, but In restaurants, barrooms
confectionery stores, and retail mer-
chants establishments. One house in
the city has a fountain which cost be-
tween five and six thousand dollars!
All are familiar with the efferves-
cence and foam that attend the mix
ing in water of carbonate of soda and
tartaric acid. As the term soda" is
applied both to the fountain and to
drink issuing from it, one naturally
supposes that there is soda in the
foaming fluid he is taking.
1t is not so, however. The water is
charged with carbonic acid, and is
favored and sweetened with some one
OF the various syrups. The carbonic
acid gas is forced into with q pressure
OF one hundred and eighty pounds to
the square inch, and it is the escape of
this gas, when the faucet is turned and
the water flows into the tumbler, that
causes the foamins.
The gas was formerly obtained from
carbonate OF soda, and hence the pres.
ent name which still clings to it; but it
is now obtained from marble, which
is carbonite of lime. Marble is SIM
ply lime and carbonic acid chemically
combined. The union is a weak one.
Sulphuric acid has a much stronger
affinity for the lime than the carbonic
acid has, and upon being poured on
powdered marble releases the carbon
ic acid, which is then absorbed by the
water. 1t makes no difference with
the drink whether the carbonic acid is
obtained from soda or from marble,
since nothing but the acid passes into
the water.
In, and in the neighborhood of, large
cities, the sellers OF soda water do not
charge their own fountains. It is
done for them at large central estab-
lishments.
The question has been put to us if
soda water is wholesome. Almost any
calculated drink is pleasant in sum-
mer, and it often meets a real need Of
the system. Probably carbonated
water is as wholesome as any.
We should advise less of the syrup
than is commonly taken, partly be-
cause it is apt not to be pure, and
partly because, even if pure, it is not
very good for the stomach. "Plain
soda" is better than soda with syrup,
and, after a little time, quite as
pleasant as that.
We believe that care is taken to
have the water pure, and to keep the
apparatus free from corrosive matter,
and when this is done, no harm is
likely TO result from q moderate re-
sort to the fountain.

Experiments with dogs show that their
keen sense OF smell enables them to detect or
discover persons by this sense alone. Such
experiments prove that not only dc we all
have looks peculiar to ourselves but that
each individual has distinctive odor
about his person which is being continual
ly given off as are the odors OF flowers
Human beings are by no means unsuscep-
tible to the influence Of these bodily odors.
and perhaps they have more influence than
we suspect in causing one person to be at.
tracted toward or repealed from another.
Perhaps we do not know what we miss in
this lack OF keen development Of one OF the
five senses, but on the other hand, perhaps
we are well off as We are.-Dr. Foots

st. Paul is becoming great educational
center, and the institutions already estab-
lished are encouraging evidences Of what
we may expect in the near future. Take,
for instance. among the girls schools, the
admirable Academy OF st. Joseph, which
the Sisters have been conducting for many
years, on the corner OF Nelson and Western
Ave. tits an immense building, covering, with
its surrounding grounds and outhouses, an
entiro block. Built Of stone with large,
wide corridors, AIRY rooms and every mod
erq convenience, such 40 steam heating,
gas, hot and cold water, st. Josephs Ac-
admey ranks foremost among the educa-
tional institutions of the state. The course
OF instruction covers everything from the
primary department to the long list o I
studies which the graduate has mastered.
Last year the roll OF students was very
large. There were young ladies from ali
parts OF the northwest and the east, and
the universal expression OF opinion by
guardians and friends was one OF entre
satisfaction with everything connected
with the institution. Parsntsbefore plac-
